I do all my own wrenching and mechanical repair because that is the only way I can afford to run bikes no one else wants to work because they are vintage.
I love my HONDA EXPRESS NC50 because it runs and runs and runs and runs and runs. Its a very light bike great for weaving around the pot holes and inner city cager grid lock.

Best head temps are around 410F - EGT 800F - 1300F. My biggest problem with people are the people who are in a big fat hurry and like to tail gate me while they are on their cell phone and drinking coffee. People need to get out of their cars and reconnect with NATURE !
